SUMMARY:Padma Venkatraman at CBW with her new book "Faraway Family" -- perfect for ages 4 to 7!
DESCRIPTION:Making friends with faraway relatives you’ve never met can be a little daunting at first\, but this family finds a unique way to connect. Award-winning author Padma Venkatraman’s picture book debut shows the joy of connecting through imaginative play. Join us on Sunday\, November 29th at 12:30 when Padma shares her story and engages with her audience using shadow play. This event is perfect for 4-7! We hope you can join us!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Padma Venkatraman\n\n\n\nPadma Venkatraman was born in India and became an American after living in five countries and working as an oceanographer. She also wrote The Bridge Home (Walter Award\, Golden Kite Award\, Global Read-Aloud)\, A Time to Dance (IBBY selection\, ALA Notable)\, Island’s End (CCBC Choice\, South Asia Book Award)\, and Climbing the Stairs (ALA/Amelia Bloomer List\, Notable Social Studies Trade Book for Young People).

But sometimes it takes a while to connect. That’s what happens to the little girl in this book — when she first sees her faraway family\, they feel like strangers. To make matters worse\, the power goes out at bedtime\, and that means no more night-light. Then a flashlight beam appears — it’s her grandmother\, who invites her into a lively game of shadow play. And soon the two of them are having a grand adventure\, and the girl’s faraway family starts feeling more like friends.

SUMMARY:Hanukkah Kick Off with Maurice Elias and his holiday book "Hamantaschen for Hanukkah?!: A Tale of the Wise People of Chelm"
DESCRIPTION:Continuing our holiday kickoff\, we are so happy to have Maurice Elias joining us on Sunday\, November 22nd at 1:00 for his wonderful Hanukkah story Hamantaschen for Hanukkah?!: A Tale of the Wise People of Chelm. This delightful picture book brings a classic Chelm folktale to life through humor\, heart\, and a joyful Jewish holiday mix-up. The story celebrates tradition\, family\, laughter\, and the importance of trusting your own understanding. We hope you can be a part of this special event.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Maurice Elias\n\n\n\nMaurice J. Elias is a Professor of Psychology at Rutgers University and a contributing faculty member in Jewish Studies. His work centers on promoting joy\, resilience\, and emotional intelligence in children and families. He is the co-author of Emotionally Intelligent Parenting\, Talking Treasure\, and The Joys & Oys of Parenting and has written more than a dozen books for parents and educators. He and his wife live in Highland Park\, New Jersey\, close to their two daughters and three grandchildren. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n				\n					\n					\n					Hamantaschen for Hanukkah?!: A Tale of the Wise People of Chelm Maurice EliasAges 4-8 Event Date: Nov. 22\, 2026 (CBW)\n				\n				$18.95\n				\n				Add to cart\n			\n\n\n\n\nAbout Hamantaschen for Hanukkah?!: A Tale of the Wise People of Chelm\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen a letter arrives from the chief rabbi wishing the town a happy Purim\, the grown-ups never stop to question why the message has arrived during Hanukkah. Soon\, the townspeople are baking hamantaschen\, sewing costumes\, and enthusiastically planning Purim festivities — despite the menorahs already glowing in their windows.+\n\n\n\n\nOnly Shmendrick and Mushka\, the siblings\, recognize the mistake. As the adults argue with absolute certainty\, the children quietly choose to honor the holiday they know is correct while still embracing the joy\, laughter\, and togetherness surrounding them. \n\n\n\nRooted in the beloved Jewish folklore tradition of Chelm\, the legendary village where adults are famously foolish and children often know best\, Hamantaschen for Hanukkah?! offers young readers a warm and funny story about tradition\, critical thinking\, and trusting their own understanding.

One name at a time\, every voice gets its turn\, and when Jordan’s whisper comes\, it is heard. A tender story of belonging for every child who has ever wondered if there was space for them.
